A Few Words from Jack Nicholson

· · 14 Comments

I’m on the set of Hulu’s The Dropout. And I just wanted to send you a little video note about something I heard Jack Nicholson say that’s been inspiring me lately.

Check out Jack Nicholson’s audio below! And drop a comment to let me know your thoughts. There’s a lot in what he reads.

    Being and imagination comes from my body. Understanding and ideas come from my head.

    Anytime someone speaks on imagination I perk up because for me that’s where most of the fun is.

    This is incredible, thanks for sharing, Josh. Hearing him talk about spontaneous imagination not suffering from a block is creative invincibility, which is the gift you guide us to. Forever grateful 🙏

    “Imagination will not suffer from a block.”

    I love this reminder. It’s about openness, and listening, and letting what is ready to emerge.

    Thanks for sharing this Josh! Good luck on set! Looks like you’re having a blast 🙂

      Thanks for your comment Beth.
      Yes, I am having a blast!
      Yes – letting it emerge as result of openness – yup.
      Rock on

    My most inspirational moments as an art educator came from this place. Being swiftly transported in being to the right words, the body movements. When I was “in” the excitement, love or disdain for the subject I was teaching, they got it. The kids got it.

      So beautiful.
      Such a gift to the kids.
      Relish in that success!

    Love that wisdom from Jack! As a coach, I can over-prepare and then I’m in my head versus meeting my client where they’re at in the moment and allowing their agenda to drive the conversation. It flows so much better when I can remember to do that!

      Yes – the greatest reminder for us all.
      Really interact with what is in front of us as opposed to something our mind made up beforehand.
      Thanks for that, Michael.
      Best

      They have a good make up dept on the show. Plus organic as much as possible and nothing processed. And jumping from tree to tree, of course.
